Episode Summary

The Decepticons notice that Megatron is acting a little crazy. The Autobots and humans salute Optimus Prime's return outside the Axalon, surrounded by the mysterious space Mini-Cons' light beams. A black hole suddenly appears and pulls Red Alert and Hotshot to a distant planet, where the Decepticons follow. Nemesis Prime, a black clone of Optimus Prime, attacks them all and seems indestructible with his static reforming power, leaving everyone injured. The Mini-Con lights lead the Axalon to the planet where 5 of the mysterious Mini-Cons reformat the injured with a powerful light beam. Optimus Prime appears, powerlinks with Overload, and teams with Megatron (now called Galvatron) to blast away Nemesis Prime as a static form of Sideways. The planet begins to self destruct and Galvatron disables the Axalon, before leaving to conquer Cybertron.moreless

Optimus Prime is back and here to stay.<br />
Battling the mysterious Nemesis Prime, several Autobots and Decepticons acquire powerlinx upgrades.

So here we have it, yet another great Armada episode where the story moves forward.

This episode is the first in the Unicron trilogy to introduce the concept that Unicron can create anomolies in the fabric of space and time, a theme that will happen once again in the next episode, Energon and Cybertron.

Also this episode is the introduction of Overload, his origins aren't clear, he might have been constructed by the Autobots or maybe by the Mini cons but he just appears anyway.Five characters gain a powerlinx upgrade, it's not made clear how it's better but Megatron makes reference to it giving him more power, he also uses the name Galvatron.Most surprisingly was Starscream referencing his powerlinx upgrade to making him look like Thundercracker - a character who would appear later during Cybertron.moreless

In this episode, Starscream gets an upgrade, which, as he says, makes him look like Thundercracker in the toy line. Hasbro initially wanted Thundercracker to be a seperate character all together, but the Armada writers had other ideas. There is another toy based on Starscream's mold, called Skywarp. It's rather fitting, since in the original toyline, Skywarp, Starscream, and Thundercracker were all the same mode, but with different color schemes to identify the seperate charaters.
